Dean of Studies/ Programme coordination
Please refer to the Dean's Office notes page for issuance of overall Learning Agreements.
Dean of Studies
A double degree program is the admission of two different courses of study, each with independent degrees (e.g. bachelor's degree and state examination).
In principle, an application for double studies (German) is sufficient, provided that you want to take up an admission-free course of studies in addition and that you have the required qualification. The application for admission to a double degree program can only be submitted for a subsequent semester; at the earliest when you are re-registered for the subsequent semester and at the latest before the start of the corresponding semester.
Crediting of achievments
- Acceptance for credit of assessments completed prior to enrolment (organisational unit responsible: Programme coordination).
- Acceptance for credit of assessments that were completed at the University during the enrolment process (organisational unit responsible: Examinations Office)
- For domestic courses that are taken at other universities during your enrolment in Passau (e.g. at the Virtual University of Bavaria - vhb), an individual learning agreement must be issued in advance (responsible chairs/teaching units WIWI or Dean's Office WIWI for subsequent grade confirmation).
Exception:
- Please use the standard application form for recognition in the General Studies ("Studium Generale")-Programme or in the area of Key Competences ("Schlüsselkompetenzen") completed prior to enrolment at the University of Passau.
- Please contact the Examinations Office for recognition in the General Studies programme or in the area of key competences completed during your enrolment internally at the University of Passau.
- Recognition in the General Studies programme or in the area of key competences completed at another university while enrolled at the University of Passau (e.g. at the Virtual University of Bavaria - vhb) requires an individual learning agreement (see download section on the right) issued in advance (to be submitted to the WIWI programme coordination).
Only if the following hard-case criteria apply to you are you eligible to be assigned a thesis by the Dean of Studies:
1. you have already applied unsuccessfully to five different chairs to supervise your thesis.
2. your academic progress requires you to write your thesis immediately.
In this case, please note:
- Assignments from the Dean of Graduate Studies will only be made once or twice per semester.
- Send us a cover letter describing which department chairs you have already applied to unsuccessfully, as well as your grade transcript and resume.
In the meantime, be sure to continue applying on your own. In doing so, also contact chairs that are not among your favorites. An application that you successfully complete yourself is definitely preferable to an assignment by the Dean of Studies (please inform us immediately).
